<p>Oftentimes people will file issues to rust-lang/rust that should be destined to other repositories in <code>rust-lang</code>. Is there any way perhaps to set up repositories so that a person doesn't need some sort of a write permission in the target repository in order to move an issue to it?</p>

<p>In retrospective this should've been a <a class="stream" data-stream-id="242791" href="/#narrow/stream/242791-t-infra">#t-infra</a> thread, but I can't move it ^^</p>

<p><span class="user-mention" data-user-id="123586">@nagisa</span> Unfortunately GitHub requires "write" permission in both repositories to transfer.  I transfer things when I can, but there are several repos I don't have access to that would be nice to transfer things to.</p>

<p>Maybe <code>rustbot</code> can do that? Something like <code>@rustbot move rust-lang/repo_name</code> (only people with r+ rights).</p>

<p>That seems like a good idea. You'd still want to make sure someone had appropriate permissions in both repositories, but they wouldn't need direct-write permission.</p>
